Pours a slightly hazy gold to copper hue. White silky foam pops less than a finger high and then recedes to a slick, consistent cover just shy of an inch thick. Moderate lacing. Smell definitely brings grapefruit upfront. Taste is more of a pithy and zest grapefruit, maybe some Granny Smith apple, and some bitter, malt takes a backseat. Mouthfeel is smooth, slick, carbonation is part of this drink through and through. Finish brings more bitter. Overall, pretty good. Only thing that might make it a little more interesting to me (IMHO) would be a little more complexity in the nose, perhaps some floral citrus. But hey, I think they definitely hit the grapefruit they were going for.
